Anyone read this short novel. IMHO Claypool is a better writer than a musician. Good read, full of irony, twisted humor and a big surprise. Lots of drug content, 2 characters are speed freaks and the other is on shrooms through the whole story.

Full of Norcal flava, any one from El Sobrante here?  Anyone ever eat at Nathan's on San Pablo Dam Rd.?
a group of us, on peyote, had little to share with a group on marijuana

the marijuana smokers were discussing questions of the utmost profundity and we were sticking our fingers in our navels & giggling

very very dark. Funny, but very dark and gruesome. But Les toucxhes on some real issues, such as racisim and bluie collar ignorance, and rising above your raising.
